           Summary: Corrupted XMI file (empty!)
           Product: umbrello
           Version: 1.2.1
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: umbrello-devel.kde.org
        ReportedBy: holster iki fi


Version:           1.2.1 (using KDE 3.2.1,  (testing/unstable))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 (Debian)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.6.4-1-k7

I was playing with an XMI class diagram file, which contained totally ~20 classes and few hundred attributes. Suddenly umbrello began to crash everytime when I tried to save the file. After few closing & re-opening umbrello said "error when loading file" etc. I found that the file was empty, i.e its size was 0 bytes! Wow, I lost work of several days. I'm not sure if the file was overwritten when it was saved or loaded.

This is not my first umbrello 1.2.1 related problem: once it crashed when I modified attributes, and it regularly losts my custom colors & fonts.

I'm sorry this bug report is not very informative. I just want to let you know, that there is a risk of getting your XMI file destroyed.
